when you see what has happened in benghazi here, what are your thoughts? >> it is troubling, it is true. we know as early as 1996 our intelligence community had live active al-qaeda cells under surveillance in kenya. despite those facts, nothing was done to increase security at our embassies in nairobi or tanzania. following that, attack, our late admiral crow was tasked to head up the accountability review board and most disturbing was the fact that within that review report, the recollection takes that were made have not been -- the recommendations made have not been followed it was stayedded in that report that embassy security had not kept up with current law. up until that point. and this problem has compounded. we are seeing similarities with benghazi, and we hope that whoever served as secretary of state in our next congress will make security a top priority. and we hope that finally, families, diplomatic families will once again hopefully the first time really ever, receive a support that they need and the attention they so very much deserve. this

obviously she has questions to answer in benghazi. the report was accurate. i don't believe it did reach her. she has an obligation to testify to show what her role was. how those decisions are made. apparently it didn't go to her, but why doesn't it go that high. if she runs in 2016 she will be judged on her record. so long as she comes in i think that will immunize her as far as running for president. but it is essential she do testify. >> on 48 hours notice she will be back to work. we appreciate that. thanks for coming in. >> thank you, congressman. >> congressman king just gave us the big fallout and questioning why some of the information may not have gotten to secretary of state hillary clinton. the scathing report blames the state department for failing to protect the u.s. consulate, and it raises questions about mrs. mrs. clinton's role. she does take she stakes responsibility, and she promises to testify about what happened at the house foreign affairs committee hearings held next month. for more on this let's go to the former spokesperson for the l

she gave this explanation for the terrorist attacks that killed four americans in benghazi, libya on september 11th. >> the best assessment we have is that in fact this was not a pre planned, premeditated attack. what happened initially was a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired in cairo. it was a consequence of the video that people gathered outside the embassy, and then it grew very violent. those with extremist ties joined the fray and came with heavy weapons which unfortunately are quite common in post revolutionary libya. that then spun out of control. but we don't see at this point signs that this was a coordinated, planned premeditated attack. >> obviously somebody saw it that way. sworn testimony indicates that within a day they saw it as a very concerting and planned and coordinated attack. yet she was on all five of these shows saying they had no evidence of it. i think one of the reasons she is not going to be secretary of state was it was going to be a tough senate battle. and by the way, for the nonsense that somehow the rejection of her potential nomination,
